The Oak Ridge Boys - Someplace Green lyrics

[The Oak Ridge Boys - Someplace Green lyrics]

The good Lord made man
Then he rested for a little while
Said look what I've done, ain't he pretty
Then he cracked a smile
I'll watch him grow, I'll hear him talk
Learn to love and fight
But when he's had his fill of these
I'll walk him through the night

To someplace green (someplace green)
Someplace nice (someplace nice)
Someplace that I (ooh ooh) call paradise
Growin' greener in the rain
Waitin' there for man to claim

The good Lord looked down on the
Earth one afternoon and frowned
Said man ain't learned an awful lot since
I carved him out of ground
He's built a lot of steeples of
Clay and rocks and sand


But he hasn't learned to get
Along with his fellow man

And someplace green (someplace green)
Someplace nice (someplace nice)
Someplace that I (ooh ooh) call paradise
Is growin' greener in the rain
Waitin' there for man to claim

The good Lord's been around a while
He'll turn a tee at least
And I guess he'll be around a while
When time and tide have ceased
Lookin' down from somewhere
Tryin' hard to find
If man has earned his paradise
The other side of time

And someplace green (someplace green)
Someplace nice (someplace nice)
Someplace that he calls paradise
Is growin' greener in the rain
Waitin' there for man to claim
Yes growin' green, green
Green in the rai-ai-ain
Waitin' there for man to claim
